It’s the most wonderful time of the year for Marvel Omnibus fans – time for the Tigereyes Most Wanted Marvel Omnibus 13th Annual Secret Ballot! This post explains every Spider-Verse omnibus that does NOT exist – all of which will appear as options on the 2025 poll.
What do I meant by “Spider-Verse”? Every Spider-Hero other than Spidey himself, whether that’s from our own reality or the multiverse! Plus, several of his foes… who are sometimes anti-heroes in their own right.
For the next two weeks, I’ll be covering Marvel’s entire publishing history by mapping missing omnibus volumes to fill in every gap in your Marvel oversize shelf! That’s all leading to the kickoff of the Tigereyes Most Wanted Marvel Omnibus 13th Annual Secret Ballot on Near Mint Condition on April 28, 2025.
The Spider-Verse of friends and foes of Peter & Miles has very few omnibuses to represent it – basically, Spider-Gwen is the only other hero to score her own book! But, there’s also plenty of material from the many Spider-Women (including Jessica Drew, Julia Carpenter, Mattie Franklin, & Silk), multi-verse Spiders (including Spider-Ham, Spider-Girl, & Spider-Man Noir), plus allies (like Slingers, Arana, & Spider-Boy) and villains (like Doc Ock, Green Goblin, & Kraven).
If you’re not sure of what to vote for, stick around for a list of books vetted by a gang of the biggest mapping nerds on the internet with explanations from yours truly – keeper of the most-definitive guides to Marvel’s collected editions on the planet.
Or, if you don’t care about omnibuses, just use this post to learn about Marvel’s history and find some great comics to read!
The book titles and mapping in this post were curated with the help of Steve Ellis (AKA DBZALLSTAR). Steve is a supporter of the charity Comic Book Legal Defense Fund (CBLDF) – which just successfully fought to have comics restored to library shelves just outside of my beloved Philly!
